Displaying timer values in minutes/seconds

[ElroyJetson]

Hi all,

I have some timers set-up for certain events, and I need to display the .acc values in minutes/seconds. I know that the standard time base is milliseconds, but I only want to display the minutes and seconds values to the operators. I cant figure out how to convert the millisecond data to the corresponding minute/seconds values....

You can use FmtTMR to format the time value into a string.

If you would prefer numeric values, you can use two MATH boxes:
For seconds use: MATH SecondVar = (Tmr.Acc / 1000) % 60
For minutes use: MATH MinuteVar = Tmr.Acc / 60000

Thanks BobO! both work beautifully, and I learned something along the way!!!!
I ended up using a combination of both to get the displayed string wording exactly as I wanted.
